Persuading the council to fix Newington

After the success of our petition to ask the council to resurface the bike polo court at Newington Gardens, we have been invited to make a five minute presentation at the next Community Council meeting.

I understand these meetings are attended by 70-100 people, and so we should try and get a good group of players down, to support our cause.

Happy to discuss with anyone who wants further info, or who wants to be involved in what we say on the night.

I'm in!

Hmmmm... Not much interest in this! Can we get a good show for this?

reminder this is Thursday coming up.

I would be in for this and happy to help present in anyway. If this needs pub prep time this week give me a shout on zero 7 double 8 five 2 four 3 five 27

I think @wooodrow and @Emab are on it?

Okay no worries. Can turn up to throw up support.

@wooodrow did I ever send those pics of the waterlogged Newington to you? Can't remember if I did or not.

Resurfacing the court should be a no brainer for the council.

No I don't think you did @dubkev they would be very very useful. Could you get them over to me today?

Me and emmett will present- just a couple of minutes about who we are and what we want. Would be nice to have friendly faces in the room

Have just heard from the council - we will be on at 7.15

Gmailed them to you. Let me know if you get them ok

No sign of them- I've emailed you

The flooding argument is the best one to take I think. As it affects everyone using the courts, not just polo.

Yes - I am going to make it one of the central points. WHat we do on the court is sort of by-the-by

Let's just hope the water polo people don't turn up. :)

Good luck with getting them to prioritise it!

Good luck!

How did it go?

Let me find a flux capacitor... ;)

This is tonight, please come everyone

Will be there

Emmet and I will be at the closest pub to the venue from 5

Haha..

Good luck, guys!

I'll be at the place for 7!

Great. Flowers of the Forrest looks like the best place to meet for people there before 6.30 https://goo.gl/maps/7swH3ZMuFP32
